Q: I recently acquired a set of Chevy “camel hump” small block heads. I am putting in screw-in studs so I can use Harland Sharp roller rocker arms. Other than fitting the studs, do I need to do any machine work to the heads to use the ..., For instance, the camel hump symbol (also called double hump) can be found on 461, 461X, 462, and 291 casting heads. The 492, 292, and 186 heads have a slightly different looking camel hump. These heads may have come with 1.94/1.5-inch valves or they might have been made with 2.02/1.6-inch valves.
